• What is All Raise?

  All Raise is a nonprofit, community-driven organization on a mission to create a tech culture where women and nonbinary voices build and fund the future.

• What is the All Raise VC Summit?

  The All Raise VC Summit convenes the most senior women and nonbinary investors in venture capital to redefine what it looks like to be a wildly successful investor.

  Throughout the Summit, attendees connect over thought-provoking topics that matter for their careers and for the advancement of women and nonbinary people in VC. The Summit includes main stage sessions with talks and panels that provide insights for today's economic environment and inspire future opportunities. We also host small group discussions with peer facilitators, top-tier networking during welcome events, opportunities to talk candidly about investments and portfolios, and activities to connect with investors and All Raisers from across the country.

• Who can attend?

  The 2025 VC Summit focuses on GP and Partner-level investors plus next-generation VC leaders. Attendees must have a Partner or GP title. By exception, we will allow principals to attend if they write checks and serve on boards. We’ve also reserved a handful of tickets specifically for emerging managers with less than $25 million AUM. 

  Limited tickets are available.

• Why is the primary focus on women, nonbinary, and select senior men?

  86% of VC decision-makers are men. All Raise's VC Summit is the largest gathering of female and nonbinary investors at the GP, Partner, and Principal level, designed specifically to support their careers. This year, we're expanding our impact by including qualified male allies who attend the full conference to deepen collaboration and accelerate systemic change in venture capital.

• How are attendees chosen?

  We focus on investors with Partner or GP titles who can benefit from actionable content in an intimate setting. Our diverse audience—including women, nonbinary individuals, and select male allies—creates richer dialogue, deeper learning opportunities, and stronger networks that advance our shared mission of increasing representation in venture capital.

  This thoughtful diversity allows all attendees to engage in candid conversations about industry challenges, share deal flow and insights, build meaningful cross-gender relationships, and develop strategies for creating systemic change within their firms. The varied perspectives enhance problem-solving discussions while maintaining the supportive, authentic environment our community values.

  We aim to be inclusive across geographies, backgrounds, volunteer involvement, sectors, and career stages while maintaining our focus on senior-level active checkwriters who are positioned to drive meaningful change in the industry.

  
  

• Do you have an age requirement?

  You must be 21+ to attend.

• What happens after I request an invitation?

  Applications are reviewed by the VC Summit Audience Committee, with final communications to all requests wrapping up no later than September 30, 2025.

• How much are tickets to VC Summit?

  Current Price: $1,099 per ticket

  Included: All Summit programming, welcome dinner, networking events, conference meals, and activities.

  Not Included: Travel and hotel costs (discounted room block available at The Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay and Half Moon Bay Lodge).

• Do you offer discounts?

  We don't offer discounts, but scholarships are available if cost is a barrier. We encourage firms to cover tickets for their women and nonbinary team members, supporting professional development and career growth.

• Can I expense my ticket with my firm?

  Absolutely! We encourage all VC firms to support their women and nonbinary investors by covering ticket costs. All Raise is a nonprofit focused on helping GP, Partner, and Principal level investors supercharge their professional development and VC insights.

• Are tickets tax-deductible?

  Tickets aren't tax-deductible due to included food and materials. However, donations to sponsor scholarships and other event costs are tax-deductible.

• Can I sponsor an investor to attend?

  Yes! You can support attendees by sponsoring Summit badges and/or travel costs. Contact [email protected] for more information about sponsorship opportunities.

• How do I submit a speaker nomination?

  All content is designed by and with our community. Speaking opportunities are by invitation only, with the Summit agenda and speakers chosen and announced as the event approaches.

• Will content be shared after the Summit?

  We share select content and comprehensive updates each year to help community members be part of game-changing conversations. Subscribe to our newsletter and follow us on social media to be notified when content is published.

• If I can't attend the Summit, how can I get involved?

  All Raise has programs for people at all career stages. Sign up for All Raise membership to stay in the loop on volunteer opportunities, investor programs like VC Cohorts and VC Champions, and additional programming.

• Why should my firm sponsor the All Raise VC Summit?

  All Raise is a community-driven nonprofit creating lasting impact in the venture capital industry. Our efforts are powered by volunteers and corporate contributions, and the programs we run have real, measurable impact on advancing women and nonbinary people in VC.

• How can I become a sponsor?

  We're excited that you share our commitment to accelerating the success of women and nonbinary people in venture capital. Contact Paige Hendrix Buckner at [email protected] for more information. Sponsorship opportunities are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
